Ok. THANKS. I got it confused with the quote "30 Hudson Street), in Jersey City, New Jersey, is the tallest building in New Jersey, and the tallest in the United States of any building not in its metropolitan area's largest city" a very long time ago
This is unfortunately the most up to date picture of Buckhead I could find. The two tallest buildings seen rising are now complete and pretty nice. Most days in Atlanta aren't this hazy thankfully .
Houston's Medical Center is the size of Austin (three times the size of Bethesda). It will be the 10th largest business district in the US. Our medical center compared to entire cities! It already has more office space than Ft. Worth, Austin, and San Antonio combined! Then we have midtown, Greenway Plaza (size of Memphis), Galleria, Greenspoint, The Energy Corridor, Westchase, and Downtown! All distinct skylines. Yeah Houston is spread out...Atlanta has no chance. Houston has had the highest job growth rate in the nation (3.9% growth)! The next closest city is Dallas at 2.9%. National Average....0.9%. Don''t worry. We'll building more highrises.
Even though there's not much height to DC's suburban skylines, I still think they deserve a mention:
DC was confusing to me. When I first went there I was being driven around and I wasnt familiar with the area and we kept going past downtown area after downtown area with high-rise buildings, I remember thinking we were in the city of DC probably 3-4 times before we actually got there. Its also confusing because of the height restriction, all of the skylines looked new and the same to me. Its a lot of urban cities connected together. It was interesting to see.
